MY THOUGHTS:  This was kind of a strange book.  But I really enjoyed reading it.  It was a little slow but it picked up, so it kept me interested.  Charlie is a normal guy with a job, about to get married and then his father dies and all kinds of strange things start happening.  Mrs. Higley tells Charlie he has a brother, but Charlie didn't know that.  So she tells him when he wants to see his brother, just talk to a spider, so Charlie does, an pow his brother shows up.  Everyone thinks it's Charlie, but it's actually Spider.  Spider has magic powers and can make everyone see what he wants them to see.  Spider also gets Charlie in trouble at work with his boss.  Things get progressively worse for Charlie.  Really interesting book.   I give this book 4.....






This book is also for one of my reading challenges....
